Padre Mío [English translation]

You're in my life, you're in my blood

The example and the model figure of my being,

Like an eternal flame, you burn

And never in life will I forget you.

You were my guide in every way,

Holding onto my steps, my star, my sun,

You were my teacher, you were my friend

Who offered me without a care the goodness of your heart.

Father of mine...!

From the bottom of my soul,

I remember you always, always

Each time with far more love...

Father of mine...!

I've always held your affection,

For you I was that boy,

Who needed your warmth.

Father of mine...!

For your love, for what you've done

For all that you've told me

I carry you in my heart.

I felt as a child that I had confidence in life

Standing by your side, what could I fear!

I saw the sacrifice, I saw your wounds

Struggling with everything, not to fall

Casting out your anger with all of your might

There was never any of your bread missing on our table

With all my respect I loved you and I still do,

And never in life will I forget you.
